The packing tsunami has hit. Check out our cute little creatures. Benjamin is been unhappy that he’s being left alone while I pack. And Toby is wondering why Benjamin won’t join him as he blissfully plays in the packing rubble.

I’m starting this blog on our last days here in Chicago so that I hit the ground running in Baltimore. My rules of blogging:

1. MUST BLOG DAILY. Even if it’s just a picture or one sentence. This kind of goes along with my philosophy of running/exercise. If I skip even one day, it becomes a thousand times easier to skip another..and then another… and then I just fall off the wagon completely.

2. MUST SPEND >1 min. & <15 min. BLOGGING. The main purpose of this is to keep a running diary of this one precious year of stay-at-home motherhood before medical school and share updates with friends and family. My plan is not to be long-winded about boring shit. And my purpose is NOT to get random people following this blog. Although I guess that happens on this thing called the Internet?

3. MUST BREAK RULE #1 & #2 OCCASIONALLY. 🙂

Sidenote: Today Benjamin made it through a reading of Franklin in the Dark, my favorite book as a child. He loves listening to stories already, but usually gets overstimulated and ready to move around after five or so minutes. Parenthood Victory.
